Hey you got IpAddress as {::1} because of you try to get IP from your own machine.
Try below code.
var remoteIpAddress = Request.HttpContext.Connection.RemoteIpAddress;

string IpAddress = "";
if (remoteIpAddress != null)
{
    // If we got an IPV6 address, then we need to ask the network for the IPV4 address
    // This usually only happens when the browser is on the same machine as the server.
    if (remoteIpAddress.AddressFamily == System.Net.Sockets.AddressFamily.InterNetworkV6)
    {
        remoteIpAddress = System.Net.Dns.GetHostEntry(remoteIpAddress).AddressList
                            .First(x => x.AddressFamily == System.Net.Sockets.AddressFamily.InterNetwork);
    }
    IpAddress = remoteIpAddress.ToString();
}

first add this to your startup.cs before app.UseAuthentication()
app.UseForwardedHeaders(new ForwardedHeadersOptions
{
    ForwardedHeaders = ForwardedHeaders.XForwardedFor |
    ForwardedHeaders.XForwardedProto
});
Then use this
var IpAddress=Request.HttpContext.Connection.RemoteIpAddress;
Note:- add the using statement
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.HttpOverrides;
